88+ DIY Costumes, including Minecraft Steve

Sep 26, 2014

Me and 80+ blog buddies got together to bring you 80+ DIY Halloween costumes! I’m teaming up with Jamie Dorobek and her handmade Halloween costume site, Really Awesome Costumes to bring y’all tons of easy ideas to craft up DIY costumes for everyone including your pets, family costumes, and even a trunk or treat idea!

Like many kids, my son is crazy about Minecraft! When he told me he wanted to be Steve last year, I was excited that he wanted to make the costume together. He received a ton of compliments on his costume at Halloween! We even repurposed the mask into a card holder for Valentine’s Day later.

Cut the panels with a razor knife. To make it easier, I kept four squares together by just cutting through one layer of the foam paper, and left the paper backing intact, as pictured.

Tape the squares together to make a box with an open base.

Print out the Steve mask (link in the supply list above). Cut out squares for the eyes, trace those onto the foam board, and cut out the eyes from the foam.

Glue the five printed panels to each side of the box.

Accessorize with a blue shirt and jeans, and whatever other items Steve might need!

And now it’s time for tons more DIY Halloween costume inspiration! Join in on the BLOG HOP!
